Prompt: Aoko flirts with Akako, who is both confused and flustered by this.
This was originally written for the Poirot Cafe Prompt Exchange #1, with the prompt being provided by sgchan.
I'm not entirely confident about how this turned out, especially since I've never written Akako or Aoko before, but I think writing this made me actually ship AokoxAkako?
Akako liked to think that she was great at flirting, or at least getting every guy (except Kaito, much to her frustration,) to love her. As a result, she was skilled at picking up on when people were flirting, whether it was with her or with others. And right now, she was pretty sure that Aoko was trying to flirt with her.
"What are you doing after school, Akako-chan?" Aoko was sitting in the seat directly beside Akako's, leaning towards the witch slightly as she spoke. From her spot, Akako could see a blush on the other girl's face; yet another sign that she was flirting. Problem was, she wasn't sure where to go from there. Sure, she flirted with boys often enough, but flirting with girls was entirely new. Maybe be truthful?
"I was going to head straight home after school, unless you have a better idea?" Akako's response caused Aoko to light up a bit, as if she had several ideas.
"Then...would you like to check out this cafe I heard about in Beika? It's supposed to be good, so..." She trailed off, leaving Akako to sit there in silence for a moment before responding.
"I'd enjoy that, Nakamori-san." A faint blush coloured Akako's cheeks as she realized what she agreed to. This was a date, wasn't it? Well, maybe it wouldn't be so bad. Aoko wasn't that bad of a person to be around, and she seemed happy that Akako had agreed.
The sudden arrival of the teacher dragged the young witch out of her thoughts and sent Aoko rushing back to her own desk, apologizing to the person whose desk she had temporarily stolen as she went. Sighing, Akako pushed aside her worries and focused on the class.
